Help the world communicate freely.

Gengo enables anyone to connect to people-powered translation with one click. Via the Gengo website or API, individuals and businesses can connect with Gengo’s community of over 12,000 pre-tested translators to translate across 34+ languages.

The Gengo work environment is uniquely multilingual and multinational. We're a group of people that really cares about breaking down the language barrier, and we've been an international company from the start.

We founded Gengo in 2008. Our HQ is in Tokyo, but we also have a growing San Mateo team—so there are opportunities wherever you are. If you're based in the US but you're interested in working overseas, and have a college degree or four years' experience, you could be eligible to work in our Tokyo office. See specific roles for details.

We're well-funded by Intel Capital, Atomico (investors in Fab.com, Rovio, Last.fm) and other VC and angel investors. Gengo is growing fast and having fun.
